Needed a guinea pig and Queen it shall be. I need to find out if the wood glue method actually works and removes dirt.
If it does, I will try to fix the Abhorrence LPs. It takes me a lot to not immediately put the glue on these. Patience and precautions are not really my thing xP
Update:
It did work, except for some spots where the layer had been too thin. So I’ve put more glue on them and will try to peel them off once dried again. But the rest came off perfectly and it was very satisfying. For a few seconds there was no dust at all :O
I’ve already put it on the first side of the Abhorrence record and made sure the layer is perfectly even and a little bit thicker. I think if this deep clean doesn’t help, nothing can.

A Thought Experiment
Is Ishmael, son of Abraham, a distant father of Muhammad, the prophet (so-called) of Allah? I am not saying he is, and I am not saying he is not. This is but a thought experiment. The idea being this, that it sort of makes sense in this respect from a Biblical perspective.
“And he will be a wild man; his hand will be against every man, and every man’s hand against him; and he shall dwell in the…

Chapter 1: Craving Aproval
TW: Mentions of blood/bleeding, slight manipulation?, abuse, grooming(?), mentions of human experimentation
[[MORE]]The operation table was cold, the room smelled of blood as D̶r̶.̶ ̶L̶y̶n̶c̶h̶ cleaned the mess, he sighed deeply, shaking his head in disappointment. “You should know better than to fight back, dear. This happens every time.” He murmured, patting Lyth’s knee softly.
Lyth still has tears falling down his face, his pale blue eyes locked on the floor, his mess. D̶r̶.̶ ̶L̶y̶n̶c̶h̶ chuckled, standing up and throwing the blood soaked paper towels into a nearby trash can. He lifted Lyth’s chin, patting his cheek. “I expect you to stay calm next time, dear. I don’t want my favorite experiment to get locked up in that scary cellar again, his cries were oh so pitiful last time.” He cooed mockingly. Lyth trembled, terror taking over his body at the reminder of that horrid hellhole. D̶r̶.̶ ̶L̶y̶n̶c̶h̶ had saved him from that thing, Lyth had promised to never misbehave again, he didn’t like seeing the doctor’s sad expression when he was sent down there…
Lyth bowed his head down, his tears slowly coming to a stop. “I’m sorry doctor…I-I’ll do better next time, I promise…” Lyth mumbled, his soft white hair falling into his face, D̶r̶.̶ ̶L̶y̶n̶c̶h̶ sighed, shaking his head. “You better, you know I simply adore hate sending you down their, darling.” D̶r̶.̶ ̶L̶y̶n̶c̶h̶ said, turning around. “Go back to your room, we’ll try again tomorrow.”
Lyth nodded, standing up form the operation table, he clasped his hands together in front of him, walking out of the room and into the hallway. His bare feet made light footsteps against the cold floors. He stood in front of his door after a few minutes of silently walking, he reached out, grabbing the door handle and pushing the door open. Lyth stepped inside the room, closing the door gently behind him. His room was more decorated than most of the experiments at the lab, he had a mountain of plushies lined up on his bed, fluffy pillows, soft blanket, and a small toy chest full of his toys in the corner. He walked over to his bed, sitting down carefully. He looked at his arms, he had a colorful blue band-aid over the spot where D̶r̶.̶ ̶L̶y̶n̶c̶h̶ had injected his medicine, his other wounds were still open, but many of them had stopped bleeding for the most part. Lyth sniffled softly, he felt sad. He was a bad patient, D̶r̶.̶ ̶L̶y̶nc̶h̶ was so nice to him and he was still bad. He wanted to be good, he did! But he found it impossible to not lash out during his operations, he didn’t understand it. He used to be perfect! He sat still, didn’t fight, and he’d get treats, now he couldn’t do that!
He grabbed Mr. Steve, a stuffed cat that Lyth loved a lot, and cuddled it against his chest. He felt tears starting to fall down his cheeks, he needed to do better. He wanted D̶r̶.̶ ̶L̶y̶n̶c̶h̶ to be proud of him, he needed the approval, desperately.

The Stranger Games
by ashesfanfics
Basically a re-written version of The Hunger Games but the characters are replaced by Stranger Things characters. Steve Harrington is Katniss Everdeen and Billy Hargrove is Peeta Mellark. The ultimate gay fic.
In the ruins of a place once known as North America lies the nation of Hawkins, a shining Capitol surrounded by twelve outlying districts. The Capitol is harsh and cruel and keeps the districts in line by forcing them all to send two tributes between the ages of twelve and eighteen to participate in the annual Stranger Games, a fight to the death on live TV.
Eighteen-year-old Steve Harrington regards it as a death sentence when he steps forward to take his brother’s place in the Games. But Steve has been close to dead before - and survival, for him, is second nature. Without really meaning to, he becomes a contender. But if he is to win, he will have to start making choices that weigh survival against humanity and life against love.
I DO NOT OWN ANYTHING. THIS IS FOR ENTERTAINMENT ONLY.

In 1960, British electrical engineer David Latimer conceived an unusual experiment. He took a huge 35-liter glass bottle, filled the bottom with soil, carefully placed seedlings inside using a wire, and watered them.
Of the four seedlings, only one survived, but it became a legend. After 12 years, Latimer only opened the bottle once, to add a little water and seal the cork tightly. After that, the bottle remained sealed forever.
Over half a century, the spiderwort has transformed its glass home into a perfect mini-universe. The plant has learned to provide itself with oxygen, feed on its own dead leaves, and continuously produce new green shoots. A closed ecosystem has formed within the bottle, sustained solely by photosynthesis.

I got the fire lit under my tail to finally commit to drawing this out from a very short very emotional song. Originally I wanted to do an actual like animation thing for it but I am gonna need to practice a lot before that I think. This alone was almost seven hours of work. Catharsis at last.
The song is Vain Attempt by Muddasheep and I had it on repeat all day amidst other Casualties Unknown tracks. Namely ‘Despair’ and 'What Have I Done..?’
This is also the first hint at some of Marigold’s many traumas that I have posted, even if this just barely scratches the surface. Poor girl has a lot of very very repressed memories.
She was seriously messed up before even ending up on the Grey Planet.

Nature Doesn’t Know What to Do with a Big Head
It is experimenting with humans, elephants, octopi, dolphins, and mushrooms etc to develop “an intelligence”. Maybe elephants know that they’re smarter than giraffes, maybe they don’t. Humans aren’t unique, and intelligence isn’t a unique human problem. The purpose is to have some kind of learning, memory to process. The goal is to be able to “anticipate” reality. Attention defines context. Obviously there are no clear flows established for this intelligence malfunctioning except logical/pseudo patterns we hold about selves. Hardware and interpretation of hardware are two different things which us “alive” humans can’t understand as we’re just spawns, not the origin. Our struggle is to understand and accept that story of nature is incomplete, and hence our sense of incompleteness is, well, Universal. Only thing to be done with this brain in a “natural” manner is to experiment with ALL the possibilities. And so many humans living their lives is precisely that—possibilities.

I deleted all 1.45GB of data stored by the Reddit App from my phone because reddits a website and shouldnt need to store 1.5gb on my phone, now its having a siezure (edit: already working as usual). Reddit, wtf? Why are you storing 1.5gb on my phone? I understand why it became light mode, but now it wont even load my profle (already fixed), even tho on my laptop its fine, it didnt delete any of my posts or shit. So why the actual FUCK ARE YOU SO FUCKING INEFFICIENT. I could get the same fucking expirence on the reddit website on mobile without a completely fucking useless 1.45GB wasted.
So many of the apps nowadays seem to do this, so many apps that work as websites, thus needing little to no storage, absolute devour storage on my phone. Google Fucking Slides took up about a fucking Gigabyte. And when I deleted it all, literally zero changes, i watched it climb back up to 70 mb.
Right now, on my phone, I have a full game, with leaderboard, multiple systems, called Atomic Bomber, it works with zero internet, and takes up 1.79mb, Sand:Box is 12, Yiotro and Dan Ball make amazing games with no storage. Wikipedia’s app seems like it should be comparable, when I remove the 200mb cache, it only has 99mb data, and is 60mb, simply doubling it for reddit even then is NOTHING compared to Reddits gigabytes.
There is absolutely zero reason, ZERO, that fucking REDDIT, a WEBSITE, needs to store 1.45 FUCKING GIGABYTES on my phone, when deleting it didnt do anything but change my settings and make it think I had no account for a few minutes.
